Rosemary’s last class was at 3:00 p.m. Because it was still early, she asked Tina to go with her to return Nathaniel Meyer’s clothes.
Rosemary called Nathaniel Meyer to find out where he was. He gave her the address and hung up.
They got to the side of the road, got into a cab, and drove to Nathaniel Meyer’s place.
Tina thought for a moment and said, “Rosemary, let's go find some scenes for the next couple of days, okay?”
“Okay, well, why don’t we try to find it sometime?” Rosemary agreed.
The taxi stopped in front of a tall building. Rosemary paid to get out of the car. Looking at the office building in front of her, she said softly, “Isn’t this the building of a film company?”
Tina also got out of the car and said to Rosemary, “Rosemary, is it the right place? The company basically selects artists who can easily become popular in the entertainment industry. This is the company that everyone in our school dreams of working with.”
Rosemary hadn’t had a chance to do it yet, so of course she didn’t know about the famous film companies out there. Sometimes she heard it when she was with Tina and her friends.
“The person you sent the clothes to isn’t someone from this company, is he?” Tina said excitedly.
Rosemary could tell by the look on her face what she was up to. She hit her on the head and said, “It’s not what you think. I don’t know him well. I don’t even know what he does for a living. He just said his name was Nathaniel Meyer.”
Tina looked incredulous and stammered, “What... What did you say his name was?”
Rosemary looked at Tina’s weird expression and said faintly, “Nathaniel Meyer! Is there a problem?”
“Nathaniel Meyer?” Tina swallowed. “Rosemary, do you know who Nathaniel Meyer is?”
Rosemary looked at her with a puzzled look on her face and asked, “Who is he?”
“He’s international superstar Nathaniel Meyer. He’s the star of the show. And he’s my idol, too.” Tina said with a look of ecstasy.
Rosemary was reminded of what Nathaniel Meyer said the last time they were at the bottom of the valley. Now she knew why he had looked so strange.
Rosemary chuckled as she thought about Nathaniel Meyer’s face, “No wonder! Last time I was at the bottom of the valley with him, he gave me his name. But when he saw me do nothing about it for a long time, he looked very frustrated. Maybe that’s why.”
Tina covered her stomach with laughter, and tears almost burst out of her eyes. She said, “That’s for sure. He was an international superstar and you ignored him. I don’t need you to tell me that look. You’re the only one in the world who can do it.”
Rosemary shrugged, “You know I’m not a fan of stars. I just wanted to try out different roles when I started studying art.”
Tina saw her innocent expression and shook her head, saying “Nathaniel Meyer will remember you for the rest of his life as the man who took away his aura.
“All right, let’s get in there!”
Rosemary walked down the hall to the front desk and smiled. “Hello, I’m looking for Mr. Nathaniel Meyer. What floor is he on?”
The receptionist smiled and asked, “Do you have an appointment?”
“We called him before we got here. He’s the one who asked us to find him here.” Rosemary said politely.
Just as the receptionist was about to say something, the elevator door opened. Aaron Becker smiled and said, “Thank you for waiting, Miss Harris. Follow me, please.”
